Christmas time is almost here! While there’s much joy when you’re with friends and family, you’d want to make sure that your house is clean and guest-ready before they come over.
It could be a stressful process, so here’s a useful and practical Christmas cleaning list for your home, complete with cleaning tips for those in a hurry!
1. SWEEP & MOP UP HARD FLOORS
Start by sweeping or vacuuming your floors to remove any dirt, dust, hair, crumbs, and any other loose debris.
Once done, grab your mop set and start mopping your floors! Don’t miss this step as it removes any bacteria and germs from your floor.
Plus, it gives it a shine that will feel good on your guests’ feet!
Cleaning Tip: If you’re short of time, focus on cleaning the floors in the parts of your house where your guests will be at, such as your living room and dining area.

2. FRESHEN UP YOUR CARPETS
Carpets are the centrepiece of your living room. We often neglect cleaning them, even though they collect a lot of germs, dirt and bacteria.
While you can hire a professional carpet cleaning services, that might be too troublesome to arrange if you’re short on time.
Cleaning Tip: Alternatively, you can DIY and clean your carpets with just a steam mop cleaner! It cleans carpets by injecting hot steam into your carpets, which removes any bacteria, germs and odours that are lodged within your carpets.

3. CLEAN THE BATHROOM
As a guest, there’s no worse feeling than having to relief yourself in a dirty and unclean bathroom.
When cleaning your bathroom, pay attention to these areas:
Glass surfaces — Bathroom window, mirrors, shower partition, etc. Give it a good wipe down with a window cleaner to remove any stains and give it a shine.
Bathroom walls — Use a good tile cleaner to wipe away any dirt or grime that might have accumulated on your bathroom walls.
Bathroom floor — Scrub out any dirt, soap scum and stains off your bathroom floor using a push broom.
This step might require a bit more time and effort, but maintaining a clean toilet ensures a pleasant Christmas experience for your guest!

4. WIPE ALL FLAT SURFACES
Ensure that any exposed surface in your home is clean from any dust and dirt!
Start with your kitchen first, as that’s where your Christmas dinner is prepared. Do ensure that your countertops, stove tops and kitchen are thoroughly wiped and cleaned.
Once done, move on to your living room, where your guests will be gathered after the Christmas dinner! Wipe all the exposed surfaces there, such as your coffee table, cabinets and TV stands.

5. DUST OFF YOUR CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS
Let’s face it — your Christmas decorations spend most of its time collecting dust in some deep corner of your cupboard!
Do give them a good cleaning before hanging them up to avoid triggering any dust allergies from your family and guests.
Use a good duster to gently remove any dust that has accumulated on your decorations.
